Capped Leveraged Index Return Notes®
Linked to the Russell 2000® Index, due March 25, 2022

Summary

The Capped Leveraged Index Return Notes® Linked to the Russell 2000® Index, due March 25, 2022 (the "notes") are our senior unsecured debt securities.
The notes are not guaranteed or insured by the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation, the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other
governmental agency of the United States, Canada or any other jurisdiction or secured by collateral. The notes are not bail-inable debt securities (as defined
on page 6 of the prospectus). T he not e s w ill ra nk e qua lly w it h a ll of our ot he r unse c ure d a nd unsubordina t e d de bt . Any pa ym e nt s
due on t he not e s, inc luding a ny re pa ym e nt of princ ipa l, w ill be subje c t t o t he c re dit risk of CI BC. The notes provide you a
leveraged return, subject to a cap, if the Ending Value of the Market Measure, which is the Russell 2000® Index (the "Index"), is greater than the Starting
Value. If the Ending Value is equal to or less than the Starting Value but greater than or equal to the Threshold Value, you will receive the principal amount
of your notes. If the Ending Value is less than the Threshold Value, you will lose a portion, which could be significant, of the principal amount of your notes.
Any payments on the notes will be calculated based on the $10 principal amount per unit and will depend on the performance of the Index, subject to our
credit risk. See "Terms of the Notes" below.

The economic terms of the notes (including the Capped Value) are based on our internal funding rate, which is the rate we would pay to borrow funds
through the issuance of market-linked notes, and the economic terms of certain related hedging arrangements. Our internal funding rate is typically lower
than the rate we would pay when we issue conventional fixed rate debt securities. This difference in funding rate, as well as the underwriting discount and
the hedging-related charge described below, reduced the economic terms of the notes to you and the initial estimated value of the notes on the pricing date.
Due to these factors, the public offering price you pay to purchase the notes is greater than the initial estimated value of the notes.

On the cover page of this term sheet, we have provided the initial estimated value for the notes. This initial estimated value was determined based on our
pricing models, and was based on our internal funding rate on the pricing date, market conditions and other relevant factors existing at that time, and our
assumptions about market parameters. For more information about the initial estimated value and the structuring of the notes, see "Structuring the Notes" on
page TS-12.

Risk Factors

There are important differences between the notes and a conventional debt security. An investment in the notes involves significant risks,
including those listed below. You should carefully review the more detailed explanation of risks relating to the notes in the "Risk Factors"
sections beginning on page PS-6 of product supplement EQUITY INDICES LIRN-1, page S-1 of the prospectus supplement, and page 1 of the
prospectus identified above. We also urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting, and other advisors before you invest in the
notes.

Depending on the performance of the Index as measured shortly before the maturity date, you may lose up to 90% of the principal
amount.

Your return on the notes may be less than the yield you could earn by owning a conventional fixed or floating rate debt security of
comparable maturity.

Your investment return is limited to the return represented by the Capped Value and may be less than a comparable investment directly
in the stocks included in the Index.

Payments on the notes are subject to our credit risk, and actual or perceived changes in our creditworthiness are expected to affect the
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1045520/000110465920040189/a20-12205_26424b2.htm[3/30/2020 1:24:48 PM]


value of the notes. If we become insolvent or are unable to pay our obligations, you may lose your entire investment.

Our initial estimated value of the notes is lower than the public offering price of the notes. The public offering price of the notes exceeds
our initial estimated value because costs associated with selling and structuring the notes, as well as hedging the notes, all as further
described in "Structuring the Notes" on page TS-12, are included in the public offering price of the notes.

Our initial estimated value does not represent future values of the notes and may differ from others' estimates. Our initial estimated
value is only an estimate, which was determined by reference to our internal pricing models when the terms of the notes were set. This
estimated value was based on market conditions and other relevant factors existing at that time, our internal funding rate on the pricing
date and our assumptions about market parameters, which can include volatility, dividend rates, interest rates and other factors.
Different pricing models and assumptions could provide valuations for the notes that are greater or less than our initial estimated value.
In addition, market conditions and other relevant factors in the future may change, and any assumptions may prove to be incorrect. On
future dates, the market value of the notes could change significantly based on, among other things, changes in market conditions,
including the level of the Index, our creditworthiness, interest rate movements and other relevant factors, which may impact the price at
which MLPF&S, BofAS or any other party would be willing to buy notes from you in any secondary market transactions. Our estimated
value does not represent a minimum price at which MLPF&S, BofAS or any other party would be willing to buy your notes in any
secondary market (if any exists) at any time.

Our initial estimated value of the notes was not determined by reference to credit spreads for our conventional fixed-rate debt. The
internal funding rate that was used in the determination of our initial estimated value of the notes generally represents a discount from
the credit spreads for our conventional fixed-rate debt. The discount is based on, among other things, our view of the funding value of
the notes as well as the higher issuance, operational and ongoing liability management costs of the notes in comparison to those costs
for our conventional fixed-rate debt. If we were to have used the interest rate implied by our conventional fixed-rate debt, we would
expect the economic terms of the notes to be more favorable to you. Consequently, our use of an internal funding rate for market-linked
notes had an adverse effect on the economic terms of the notes and the initial estimated value of the notes on the pricing date, and
could have an adverse effect on any secondary market prices of the notes.

A trading market is not expected to develop for the notes. None of us, MLPF&S or BofAS is obligated to make a market for, or to
repurchase, the notes. There is no assurance that any party will be willing to purchase your notes at any price in any secondary market.

Our business, hedging and trading activities, and those of MLPF&S, BofAS and our respective affiliates (including trades in shares of
companies included in the Index), and any hedging and trading activities we, MLPF&S, BofAS or our respective affiliates engage in for
our clients' accounts, may affect the market value and return of the notes and may create conflicts of interest with you.

The Index sponsor may adjust the Index in a way that affects its level, and has no obligation to consider your interests.

You will have no rights of a holder of the securities represented by the Index, and you will not be entitled to receive securities or
dividends or other distributions by the issuers of those securities.

While we, MLPF&S, BofAS or our respective affiliates may from time to time own securities of the companies included in the Index, we,
MLPF&S, BofAS and our respective affiliates do not control any company included in the Index, and have not verified any disclosure
made by any other company.

There may be potential conflicts of interest involving the calculation agent, which is BofAS. We have the right to appoint and remove the
calculation agent.

The U.S. federal income tax consequences of the notes are uncertain, and may be adverse to a holder of the notes. See "Summary of
U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences" below and "U.S. Federal Income Tax Summary" beginning on page PS-26 of product
supplement EQUITY INDICES LIRN-1. For a discussion of the Canadian federal income tax consequences of investing in the notes,
see "Material Income Tax Consequences--Canadian Taxation" in the prospectus, as supplemented by the discussion under "Summary
of Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations" herein.

The stocks composing the Index are issued by companies with small-sized market capitalization. The stock prices of small-size companies may
be more volatile than stock prices of large capitalization companies. Small-size capitalization companies may be less able to withstand adverse
economic, market, trade and competitive conditions relative to larger companies. Small-size capitalization companies may also be more
susceptible to adverse developments related to their products or services.

The Index

All disclosures contained in this term sheet regarding the Index, including, without limitation, its make-up, method of calculation, and changes in
its components, have been derived from publicly available sources, which we have not independently verified. The information reflects the
policies of, and is subject to change by, FTSE Russell (the "Index sponsor"). The Index sponsor, which licenses the copyright and all other rights
to the Index, has no obligation to continue to publish, and may discontinue publication of, the Index. The consequences of the Index sponsor
discontinuing publication of the Index are discussed in the section entitled "Description of LIRNs--Discontinuance of an Index" beginning on
page PS-19 of product supplement EQUITY INDICES LIRN-1. None of us, the calculation agent, MLPF&S or BofAS accepts any responsibility
for the calculation, maintenance or publication of the Index or any successor index.

The Index is one of the Russell U.S. indices, which is designed to track the performance of the small-capitalization segment of the U.S. equity
market. The companies included in the Index are the middle 2,000 of the companies that form the Russell 3000ETM Index, which is composed of
the 4,000 largest U.S. companies as determined by total market capitalization and represents approximately 99% of the U.S. equity market. The
Index is reported by Bloomberg L.P. under the ticker symbol "RTY."

De fining Eligible Se c urit ie s

All companies that are determined to be part of the U.S. equity market under FTSE Russell's country-assignment methodology are included in
the Russell U.S. indices. If a company is incorporated in, has a stated headquarters location in, and also trades in the same country (American
Depositary Receipts and American Depositary Shares are not eligible), the company is assigned to the equity market of its country of
incorporation. If any of the three do not match, FTSE Russell then defines three Home Country Indicators ("HCI"): country of incorporation,
country of headquarters, and country of the most liquid exchange as defined by two-year average daily dollar trading volume from all exchanges
within a country. Using the HCIs, FTSE Russell cross-compares the primary location of the company's assets with the three HCIs. If the primary
location of the company's assets matches any of the HCIs, then the company is assigned to its primary asset location. If there is insufficient
information to determine the country in which the company's assets are primarily located, FTSE Russell will use the primary location of the
company's revenues for the same cross-comparison and will assign the company to the appropriate country in a similar fashion. FTSE Russell
uses an average of two years of assets or revenue data for analysis to reduce potential turnover. If conclusive country details cannot be derived
from assets or revenue, FTSE Russell assigns the company to the country where its headquarters are located unless the country is a Benefit
Driven Incorporation ("BDI") country; in which case, the company will be assigned to the country of its most liquid stock exchange. For any
companies incorporated or headquartered in a U.S. territory, including countries such as Puerto Rico, Guam, and U.S. Virgin Islands, a U.S. HCI
is assigned. If a company is designated as a Chinese "N Share," it will not be considered for inclusion within the Russell U.S. indices. An "N
Share" company is controlled by mainland Chinese entities, companies or individuals. It must be incorporated outside of China and traded on
the New York Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq exchange or the NYSE American with a majority of its revenues or assets derived from the People's

All securities eligible for inclusion in Russell U.S. indices must trade on an eligible U.S. exchange. The eligible U.S. exchanges are: BATS, IEX,
NYSE, NYSE American, Nasdaq and ARCA. Bulletin board, pink-sheets, and over-the-counter ("OTC") traded securities are not eligible for
inclusion, including securities for which prices are displayed on the FINRA ADF.

Preferred and convertible preferred stock, redeemable shares, participating preferred stock, warrants, rights, installment receipts and trust
receipts are not eligible for inclusion in the Russell U.S. indices. Royalty trusts, U.S. limited liability companies, closed-end investment
companies, blank check companies, special-purpose acquisition companies, and limited partnerships are also not eligible for inclusion in the
Russell U.S. indices. Business development companies, exchange traded funds and mutual funds are also excluded.

If an eligible company trades multiple share classes, FTSE Russell will review each share class independently for U.S. index inclusion. Stocks
must trade at or above $1.00 (on its primary exchange) on the rank day in May of each year to be eligible for inclusion during annual
reconstitution. However, in order to reduce unnecessary turnover, if an existing index member's closing price is less than $1.00 on the last day
of May, it will be considered eligible if the average of the daily closing prices (from its primary exchange) during the 30 days prior to the rank
date is equal to or greater than $1.00. If an existing index member does not trade on the rank day in May, it must price at $1.00 or above on
another eligible U.S. exchange to remain eligible. An initial public offering added during the quarterly IPO process is considered a new index
addition and therefore must have a closing price on its primary exchange at or above $1.00 on the last day of the IPO eligibility period in order
to qualify for index inclusion. Companies with a total market capitalization of less than $30 million are not eligible for inclusion in the Russell U.S.
indices. Similarly, companies with only 5% or less of their shares available in the marketplace are not eligible for the Russell U.S. indices.

Annua l Re c onst it ut ion

Annual reconstitution is the process by which all Russell indices are completely rebuilt. Reconstitution is a vital part of the creation of a
benchmark which accurately represents a particular market segment. Companies may get bigger or smaller over time, or periodically undergo
changes in their style characteristics. Reconstitution ensures that the companies continue to be correctly represented in the appropriate Russell

On the rank day in May each year (timetable is announced each spring), all eligible securities are ranked by their total market capitalization.
Total market capitalization is determined by multiplying total outstanding shares by the last price traded on the primary exchange on the rank
day in May. All share classes for a company, including unlisted shares, are aggregated and considered total shares outstanding.

Reconstitution occurs on the last Friday in June. However, at times this date is too proximal to exchange closures and abbreviated exchange
trading schedules when market liquidity is exceptionally low. In order to ensure proper liquidity in the markets, when the last Friday in June falls
on the 29th or 30th, reconstitution will occur on the preceding Friday.

Eligible IPOs are added to the Russell U.S. indices quarterly to ensure that new additions to the institutional investing opportunity set are
reflected in the representative indices. FTSE Russell focuses on IPOs each quarter because it is important to reflect market additions between
reconstitution periods. Companies filing an initial public offering registration statement (or the local equivalent when outside the United States)
and listing with the same quarter on an eligible U.S. exchange are reviewed for eligibility regardless of previous trading activity (exceptional or
unique events may induce extraordinary treatment which will be communicated appropriately); a one month window is used to ensure that
companies submitting the requisite filings just outside of the quarter are not excluded from eligibility. Companies currently trading on foreign
exchanges or OTC markets will be reviewed for eligibility if: (1) the company files an initial public offering statement for an eligible U.S.
exchange; (2) the offering is announced to the market and confirmed by FTSE Russell's vendors as an IPO; and (3) the security is not currently
a member of the Russell Global Index (eligibility and country assignment are reviewed at reconstitution).

Ca pit a liza t ion Adjust m e nt s

After membership is determined, a security's shares are adjusted to include only those shares available to the public, which is often referred to
as "free float." The purpose of this adjustment is to exclude from market calculations the capitalization that is not available for purchase and is
not part of the investable opportunity set. Stocks are weighted in the Russell U.S. indices by their available (also called "float-adjusted") market
capitalization, which is calculated by multiplying the primary closing price by the available shares. Adjustments to shares are reviewed at
reconstitution, during quarterly update cycles and for corporate actions such as mergers.

Certain types of shares are considered restricted and removed from total market capitalization to arrive at free float or available market
capitalization, such as shares directly owned by State, Regional, Municipal and Local governments (excluding shares held by independently
managed pension schemes for governments), shares held by directors, senior executives and managers of the company, and by their family
and direct relations, and by companies with which they are affiliated, and shares with high shareholding concentration, etc.

Corpora t e Ac t ion-Drive n Cha nge s

FTSE Russell defines a corporate action as an action on shareholders with a prescribed ex-date (e.g., rights issue, special dividend, stock split).
The share price and indexes in which the company is included will be subject to an adjustment on the ex-date. This is a mandatory event. FTSE
Russell defines a corporate event as a reaction to company news (event) that might impact the index depending on the index rules. FTSE
Russell applies corporate actions and events to its indexes on a daily basis. Depending upon the time an action is determined to be final, FTSE
Russell will either (1) apply the action before the open on the ex-date, or (2) apply the action providing appropriate notice, referred to as "delayed
action."

For merger and spin-off transactions that are effective between rank day in May and the Friday prior to annual reconstitution in June, the market
capitalizations of the impacted securities are recalculated and membership is reevaluated as of the effective date of the corporate action. For
corporate events that occur during the final week of reconstitution (during which reconstitution is finalized Friday after U.S. market close), market
capitalizations and memberships will not be reevaluated. Non index members that have been considered ineligible as of rank day will not be
reevaluated in the event of a subsequent corporate action that occurs between rank day and the reconstitution effective date.

If a company distributes shares of an additional share class to its existing shareholders through a mandatory corporate action, FTSE Russell
evaluates the additional share class for separate index membership. The new share class will be deemed eligible if the market capitalization of
the distributed shares meets minimum size requirement (above the minimum market capitalization breakpoint defined as the smallest member of
the Russell 3000E Index from previous rebalance, adjusted for performance to date.) Index membership of additional share classes that are
added due to corporate actions will mirror that of the pricing vehicle, as will style and stability probabilities. If the distributed shares of an
additional share class do not meet eligibility requirements, they will not be added to the index (the distributed shares may be added to the index
temporarily until they are settled and listed to enable index replication).

"No Replacement" Rule: Securities that leave a Russell U.S. index for any reason (e.g., mergers, acquisitions or other similar corporate activity)
are not replaced. Thus, the number of securities in a Russell U.S. index over the year will fluctuate according to corporate activity.

To maintain representativeness and maximize the available investment opportunity for index managers, the Russell U.S. indices are reviewed
quarterly for updates to shares outstanding and to free floats used within the index calculation. The changes are implemented quarterly, on the
third Friday of the month (after the close). The June reconstitution will continue to be implemented on the last Friday of June (unless the last
Friday occurs on the 29th or 30th, when reconstitution will occur on the Friday prior).

Supplement to the Plan of Distribution

Under our distribution agreement with BofAS, BofAS will purchase the notes from us as principal at the public offering price indicated on the
cover of this term sheet, less the indicated underwriting discount. MLPF&S will in turn purchase the notes from BofAS for resale, and it will
receive a selling concession in connection with the sale of the notes in an amount up to the full amount of the underwriting discount set forth on
the cover of this term sheet.

We will deliver the notes against payment therefor in New York, New York on a date that is greater than two business days following the pricing
date. Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business
days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the notes more than two
business days prior to the original issue date will be required to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.

The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. In the original offering of the notes, the notes will be sold in minimum investment
amounts of 100 units. If you place an order to purchase the notes, you are consenting to MLPF&S and/or one of its affiliates acting as a
principal in effecting the transaction for your account.

MLPF&S and BofAS may repurchase and resell the notes, with repurchases and resales being made at prices related to then-prevailing market
prices or at negotiated prices, and these prices will include MLPF&S's and BofAS's trading commissions and mark-ups or mark-downs.
MLPF&S and BofAS may act as principal or agent in these market-making transactions; however, neither is obligated to engage in any such
transactions. At their discretion, for a short, undetermined initial period after the issuance of the notes, MLPF&S and BofAS may offer to buy the
notes in the secondary market at a price that may exceed the initial estimated value of the notes. Any price offered by MLPF&S or BofAS for the
notes will be based on then-prevailing market conditions and other considerations, including the performance of the Index and the remaining
term of the notes. However, none of us, MLPF&S, BofAS or any of our respective affiliates is obligated to purchase your notes at any price or at
any time, and we cannot assure you that we, MLPF&S, BofAS or any of our respective affiliates will purchase your notes at a price that equals
or exceeds the initial estimated value of the notes.

The value of the notes shown on your account statement will be based on BofAS's estimate of the value of the notes if BofAS or another of its
affiliates were to make a market in the notes, which it is not obligated to do. That estimate will be based upon the price that BofAS may pay for
the notes in light of then-prevailing market conditions, and other considerations, as mentioned above, and will include transaction costs. At
certain times, this price may be higher than or lower than the initial estimated value of the notes.

The distribution of the Note Prospectus in connection with these offers or sales will be solely for the purpose of providing investors with the
description of the terms of the notes that was made available to investors in connection with their initial offering. Secondary market investors
should not, and will not be authorized to, rely on the Note Prospectus for information regarding CIBC or for any purpose other than that
described in the immediately preceding sentence.
